About Us

Laban Atelier Bratislava was established in 2008 as a platform for artistic and educational projects inspired by the legacy of world renowned movement theoretician and Bratislava native Rudolf Laban. 

The people in our team are dance professionals active in the contemporary dance community in Slovakia – we create performances, work on educational and research projects and publish books and articles about dance and movement. We have especially focused on dance teacher ‚s education for the last 10 years. We have organized and led many workshops, masterclasses and educational programmes, aiming to improve dance teachers´competences in creative teaching through innovative movement practices.
